질문 듣고 알맞은 대답 고르기

Listen to a short question or remark and choose the most natural reply.

Test tips

  1. Catch the QUESTION WORD: 언제 (when), 어디 (where), 누구 (who), 왜 (why → expect -아서/어서), 어떻게 (how), 얼마나 (how long/much), 몇 (how many).
  2. Yes/no questions take 네/아니요, but check what follows — the classic trap is '네' plus content that doesn't fit.
  3. Invitations (-(으)ㄹ까요?) take an accept/decline (좋아요, 같이 가요); requests (-아/어 줄 수 있어요?) take 네, 도와 드릴게요 / -(으)ㄹ게요.
  4. Keep the tense: a past question (먹었어요?) gets a past answer; '-(으)ㄴ 지 얼마나 됐어요?' asks how long it has been (2년 됐어요).
  5. Traps repeat words from the question but answer a different question (어떻게 가요? ↔ 10분 걸려요; 언제 심었어요? ↔ 밭에 심었어요).

Explanation

The key to this type is catching the QUESTION WORD. '언제까지' (by when, deadline) needs a time limit with '까지': '오늘 오후 5시까지요', option 2. Option 1 answers '어디에서' (where), option 3 'how many people / with whom', option 4 'how'. All four are about the same job, so if you hear only '일' and miss '언제까지', you will easily pick wrong.
